At the outset of each case we will carryout a cost/benefit analysis with you. It is important that you are in a position to make informed decisions. For you to do this, it is essential for us to be up front about the risks and costs.
We will discuss your funding options, including:
-
Legal expenses insurance - you may already have a policy of insurance to cover your legal costs.
After the event" insurance - where you do not already have a legal expenses policy we will consider with you taking out appropriate insurance cover once a dispute has arisen.
Privately funded cases - transparency is key. Charge out rates will be confirmed and realistic fee estimates for each stage given.
A strategy will be agreed with you. Your aims and objectives will be the starting point.
Alternative dispute resolution solutions are discussed before as well as after proceedings have been issued. Negotiation, mediation and arbitration regularly provide clients with speedy and cost effective results.
